Test Case:

A set of test data and test programs (test scripts) and their expected
results. A test case validates one or more system requirements and
generates a pass or fail.

It would have the following elements

1. Pre-Conditions
2. Steps to execute
3. Expected behavior
4. Pass/Fail criteria

Test Scenario:

A Test Scenario is a bussiness requirement to be tested. A set of test
cases that ensure that the business process flows are tested from end to
end. They may be independent tests or a series of tests that follow each
other, each dependent on the output of the previous one
A test scenario can have more than one test case

In a nutshell, a test scenario can be a superset of a test case
